Adamawa State Governor, Ahmadu Fintiri, has expressed strong support for the establishment of state police across Nigeria, saying it would help address the rising wave of insecurity in the country.
In an interview with newsmen, Fintiri stated that state police would give states more armed personnel to patrol ungoverned areas, enhance security, and provide quicker responses to threats.
The creation of state police has been a subject of national debate for years, with critics warning it could concentrate too much power in the hands of state governors. However, Fintiri emphasized that properly structured state police forces would complement federal security agencies.
Earlier, President Bola Tinubu had called on senators during a meeting at the Presidential Villa in Abuja to expedite legislative provisions for the creation of state police, highlighting it as a crucial step in combating insecurity nationwide.
